Migrate your data
Its easy to move your les and settings from another Mac or a PC to your MacBook Pro. You can
transfer the data when you rst set up your MacBook Pro, using Setup Assistant. If you want to
transfer later, you can use Migration Assistant to wirelessly copy your les from a Time Machine
backup, using an AirPort base station (available separately).
You can transfer data over a wireless network as long as both computers are connected to the
same network.
Use Migration Assistant. Open a Finder window, then go to Applications > Utilities and double-
click Migration Assistant. Follow the onscreen instructions to transfer information using Wi-Fi.
Copy les from a storage device. Connect the device to the USB port
or Thunderbolt port
on your MacBook Pro, then manually drag les to your MacBook Pro.
